Got this strain because I read many things about it that I wanted to try... Good yield, great taste, sometimes psychedelic high, blue hue late in flower... Here is what this experience turned out like!

Veg:

I germinated 6 seeds, out of those 5 made it.
Growth was very good, they grew very uniform. The growth was virtually identical and so was the color and indica dominant appearance.
The plants grew huge dark green fanleaves, very different from most other strains.
I've heard many people complain about root rot and over fertilization issues, but I didn't experience any problems with these plants.
Preflowers showed very late and were not very obvious when they did.
Another problem was the clonability. They rooted perfectly well, that was ok, but the plants focus on upward growth until week ~4-5, so there are not many shoots at all to take cuttings from.

Flower:

The first thing I experienced in flower was that you better be careful when handling the plants, as the stems are very brittle. Strong but brittle.
It turned out that I got 2 females out of the 5.
A very nice trait is the unusual behavior of concentrating on lower growth, so you don't end up with one huge main cola, but with several equally sized buds, the main bud beind one of the smaller ones usually.
The buds really put on weight, just as I expected a very indica dominant plant to grow.
Instead of getting a coating where you can see every single trichome they got a thin layer of small trichomes, leading to a very funky look.
Late in flower the BMs were the first ones to notice a mg def, leaves curled and yellowed, even tho the other plants in the system just barely started noticing something was wrong.
No hues of blue were visible tho, even tho temps were around 15°C at night.
Smell was sweet, very pleasant.
Harvested at 56 days, some say let them go longer, but mine seemed right.

Smoke:

The finished product: compact hairy buds, spicy sweet smell.
I'd call this connoisseur weed.
The smoke is very smooth and tasty, therefore joints are a pleasure.
On the other hand it's not the kind of knockout high which makes it good for daytime smokes... Leaves you functioning while, i.e. slightly screwing with your visual perception (you notice things you wouldn't notice normally... Light effects and such, all look great).
As I said, tasty but not that strong, great to enjoy weed and for people who want a good smoke bud don't need a killer high.

Opinion:

I think what really is a great trait is the yield. Even buds that don't recieve much light put on good weight. Growing it again.
